Chapter 145 Casting Begins!

Chen Xiao thought for a while, but had no idea, so he didn't go into details.

After saying thank you to the security lady, I put down my phone, took out the chicken breast, chopped it into pieces and put it on a small plate. I returned to the lobby, opened the box and put the plate in.

The kitten may be very hungry, so it immediately devours the food and shows it to its mouth.

Chen Xiao looked at it carefully.

The golden gradient layer is born from a pastoral cat, and the pattern looks like a tabby cat.

Gold and black, the coat color is not messy.

The nose to chin is white. There are also white hairs on the chest, as if wearing a napkin.

It's not ugly either.

Anyway, he had already planned to have two cats and two dogs.

It was destined to get into the house on its own.

Then keep it.

Chen Xiao waited until it got tired of eating, then hugged the box and drove straight to the pet hospital.

Give it a physical examination first and remove fleas.

While waiting for the traffic light, Chen Xiao glanced at the box.

What's your name?

Ah, the most annoying thing is the name.

Glutinous rice, steamed buns, glutinous rice balls, rice balls... these are too common.

Think about it again and think of a handsome one.

Hey, look at the color of this coat, why don’t we call him Huo Yun!

I happened to pick it up while filming "Kung Fu".

Go back and find an opportunity for you to play a monster!

…

Three hours later, Chen Xiao returned home from the pet hospital carrying half a car of cat supplies.

Except for some skin diseases, Huo Yun is quite healthy. After all, he has only been homeless for two days.

Chen Xiao put him in a room on the first floor and went to wash up.

I picked up my phone and saw that it was already half past eleven.

Hey, I didn’t have time to look at the cast information tonight.

That's all, let's talk about it tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow we will choose the male and female protagonists, as well as the actors such as the landlord, the landlord, and the three masters. The task is not easy, so go to bed early.

Chen Xiao walked to the bedroom window and closed it.

A gust of wind blew by, and several pages of the cast information sheet flew up, turning to the page of the heroine candidates.

Chen Xiao walked back and closed the information sheet without noticing that the actor's name was Lu Ya.

…

Early the next morning.

Outside the villa area of ​​the film and television city, a large number of security personnel were controlling entry and exit.

Because the crew of "Kung Fu" is well-known, their attitude is relatively gentle when negotiating with other crews, and other crews expressed their understanding.

Today, ten characters including male and female protagonists were selected.

Most of the heroine candidates were college students. Considering that they had classes, they were given two auditions in the morning and afternoon.

The first choice in the morning is for the male lead, one from five, starting at nine o'clock.

8:30.

Just as the crew was hurriedly preparing.

A nanny car parked in the parking lot, and the assistant got out first and opened the sun umbrella.

Wearing sunglasses, Yan He got out of the car and led a group of people towards the villa area.

The assistant looked at the crowd of reporters outside the villa area and said hesitantly: "Brother Yan, let's drive there? There are too many people. If your clothes get dirty..."

The agent glared at him, "Why are you driving! Of course this wave of traffic must be enough, and of course the crew also hopes to promote the starring role."

Yan He smiled slightly, pushed up his sunglasses, and continued walking towards the villa area.

When he turned a corner and walked to a place more than 50 meters away from the entrance, a reporter spotted him and immediately rushed over with a microphone in hand.

"Teacher Yan He! Will you come to audition?"

"Which role are you auditioning for?"

"You are one of the few popular stars born after 1995 who is good at fighting scenes. Are you confident that you will win the role in "Kung Fu"?"

…

A large number of questions came to his face, and Yan He raised his hand to signal the reporters to be quiet.

He took off his glasses and smiled: "I received an invitation from the crew to audition for the lead role. I can't say 100%, but I will give my best."

What he said was very particular.

Receiving an invitation from the crew to audition for the lead role means telling the media that he is good enough to be invited by Chen Xiao's crew to play the lead role.

Whether he succeeds or not, the news will boost his reputation.

Secondly, not daring to say 100% is showing humility.

But before coming, they had already inquired.

Among the actors auditioning for the male lead this time, in addition to him, there are two Peking Opera martial arts students and two martial arts practitioners.

Peking Opera Wusheng performs in Peking Opera all year round, and most of them focus on a certain type of role all year round. For example, those who rely on martial arts students for a long time will always show the demeanor of generals, loyalty and courage.

The protagonist should have the temperament of a gangster and a low-level person. They may not be able to act well.

In terms of acting skills, he has a big advantage.

After chatting with reporters for a few more words, Yan He walked into the villa area with his agent, assistant and others.

At 9:00 o'clock, the casting process officially began.

The selection of the protagonist is divided into two rounds. The first round is for fighting scenes, and the second round is for performing script excerpts.

The first round lasted three minutes for each player and ended quickly.

Chen Xiao flipped through the score sheet.

Except for Yan He, everyone else scored above 80 points, and Yan He scored 72 points.

As he turned the page, he said to the casting director’s assistant: “The second round, let’s begin.”

The audition clip is the scene where the protagonist robs the ice cream truck for the second time and recognizes the heroine.

Because the heroine hasn't been chosen yet, Sun Li is cast as the co-star.

Half a minute later, the first audition actor, Yan He, walked in.

Seeing Sun Li stand up, Yan He frowned and said, "I'm sorry, this scene requires a lot of emotion. Could you please change to a lady?"

The director team looked at each other.

His request is quite reasonable, but where is the girl who knows the plot and can play along?

Fang Rong looked at Sun Li and said, "You should wear a wig, there are no lines anyway."

Hearing this, Yan He's mouth twitched.

This director is dark and fat, which really affects his condition.

"Everyone, can I ask my assistant to come? She saw me practicing and knows the plot."

Several directors looked at each other and frowned.

Definitely not.

This is unfair to the actors behind.

Sun Li hesitated and said, "How about finding an actress who will audition soon?"

Chen Xiao glanced at Sun Li, put down the information in his hand, and raised his head and said:

"Find a wig and a mask. Anyway, there are no lines. I will wear a mask to act with you. You can just treat me as the heroine. But when robbing with a knife, change it to robbing in the corner, and don't make physical contact, otherwise they will laugh easily."

It is very common for directors to act with actors.

Like in love movies, directors will also teach actresses how to seduce the male lead, or dance a charming dance.

It's all for the sacrifice of art!

Compared with those scenes, this part is quite relaxed and does not emphasize gender characteristics. It's just that Sun Li's skin is darker and his belly is fatter, which makes him look more out of place.

Chen Xiao has even played Yan Hong before, so is he afraid of playing Fang Er temporarily?

The other directors were also very calm. Fang Rong nodded and said, "Okay, okay, Director Chen played Yan Hong very well last time. Although she is a little taller, she is about the same height as several candidates, so it's okay. At least she is much more suitable than Lao Sun."

The chief director and the director of photography have spoken, and Yan He certainly has no objection, and nodded in agreement.

Soon, the assistant director came in with a wig and a mask and handed them to Chen Xiao.

The audition officially began!
